Question about my processor

0siris85 · 05-16-2008, 02:56 PM

ever since I built my computer and ran memtest I've been curious to see why it showed my computer as an Intel P3 Xeon. Here are the readouts from everest home edition and PC Wizard...can someone explaining why they are showing two totally different results?

Specs:

Intel e8400 C2D
GA-P35 D3SL (latest bios, f8f)
eVGA 8800GT
2x2GB Mushkin PC-6400

i would say that everest version came out before the 8400 came out
